Mt. Jefferson Cuvée Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2021

Quite young but totally ready to drink. Beautiful aromas of wild berries, violets and wet potting soil. The palate is full of red berry fruit with notes of mushroom, Earl Grey tea, fresh basil, mint and sweet spices. A note of “steaminess” (whole cluster?) and a beautiful touch of mineral on the finish. Lovely balance and perfect acidity. Light bodied, silky tannins and so fresh tasting. Great effort! — a month ago

Jessie Vineyard Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir 2007

2007 was drinking great. Mature but still fresh and lively. Secondary flavors emerging but don’t overshadow the core fruit profile. Light tart cranberry/raspberry — 2 months ago

Louise Vineyard Chardonnay 2020

The Cristom Louise Vineyard chardonnay was a delightful Willamette chardonnay, able to stand with the better Napa and Carneros chardonnay. — 7 months ago

Eileen Vineyard Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir 2021

Delectable Wine
9.6

Deeply seductive, the 2021 Pinot Noir Eileen Vineyard opens with a burst of mentholated herbs, licorice and sweet autumnal spices. Juicy and broad upon entry, this envelopes the palate with ripe red and hints of blue fruit, giving way to suggestions of cola and lavender. Its mineral core comes forward through the finish, gaining tension through a blend of fine tannins and residual acids as spice and floral notes resonate throughout. The Eileen Vineyard is refined using 46% whole clusters and 34% new French oak barrels for eighteen months. (Eric Guido, Vinous, January 2024)

Sommers Reserve Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2009

Definitely doesn’t feel 14 years old. Still very primary with black cherry and baking spice and cedar. Very good, high quality Willamette Pinot. I could (and have) drink a lot of this. — 7 months ago
